Fare cut on the Heathrow Express

HEATHROW EXPRESS – on a mile-for-mile basis, the planet’s most expensive railway – is cutting fares. 

One-way fares are being reduced by £6, or more than 25%, for passengers who book online one week ahead. The return fare on the same terms is being cut by £5.

Heathrow Express has had until now a simple one-price structure for journeys to Central London, at £21 one way and £34 return for the 15-minute journey.

The company, owned by Heathrow Airport, attracts six million passengers a year, helping to bring in an income of £124 million.

The price cut is aimed at not only winning more passengers but also showing the rail regulator that it should be considered as the operator of future railway services to the airport.
